Cosplay is the act of dressing up as your favorite character. Charity is helping others. Japanese businessman Akihiro Tomikawa does both.
According to Sankei, the 44 year-old Tomikawa dresses as Japanese superhero Kamen Rider and rides into the Bangkok slums to hand out toys to underprivileged kids. Once every two months, Tomikawa apparently makes the trip to Thailand to do good deeds.
Talk about a real superhero.
